Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

Maura's POV:

I basically crawled behind him. And since it was too dark, Dad got the benefit, and nobody spotted me in that state. Even if they had, they wouldn't say a word. Nobody wanted to mess with my father, as he would make their lives hell.
